There are people who say that religion is no longer needed in our time. Its perpetuation is considered an obstacle to the progress of human civilization. Even though it is deemed foolish, it is still tolerated as a private matter and has nothing to do with public life particularly politics and economics. People who propagate this idea are either not honest or blind. They deny and could not see that their loyalty to atheism, humanism, autonomy, antinomianism, and statism are the popular and new forms of religions in our day.

Mises on Today's Religions
"The history of the world's great religions is a record of battles and wars, as is the history of present-day counterfeit religions, socialism, statolatry, and nationalism" (Human Action, pp. 147-148).
